CAREERS AND COMMUNITIES

Beneficiaries of the foundation aspire to do as much for the community as the community benefactors have done for them. By continuing their engagement with The SevenPiece Foundation as their careers advance they provide support for emerging and established artists and provide projects and income opportunities. The foundation helps strengthen the community by producing productive artists and creating a conduit for donors and collectors to be introduced and contribute to the success of the artist.

The foundation’s work often involves the renovation of donated real estate. Whether physically blighted, financially distressed, or just past their useful life, these properties provide great opportunities for craftspeople and those in the construction trades to gain valuable experience while making an impact in the community. As the real estate is renovated, it improves the community, provides work opportunities, and creates new spaces for the creation and display of art, allowing donors and collectors to have direct access to art that they can appreciate and invest in.

Through the foundation's efforts, the community benefits from a greater appreciation of the arts, while also having a diversity of projects that can bring in donors and collectors. This can be beneficial in many ways, including increased tourism and raising awareness for local art. The SevenPiece Foundation enriches the community and enhances the local economy by providing its beneficiaries a platform to showcase their work and provides income opportunities for craftspeople and construction workers.
